Best view is in the ladies bathroom! For real!!
L KApril 18, 2015
Good to experience once. Super expensive, so only go for a drink - not the whole night.
Imran KhanMay 29, 2013
Be sure that the waiters try not to rush you...known to do that.
Johannez GlatzJune 24, 2013
Expensive! Bad Service! But still worth the view! Tip: you don't necessarily have to buy something to enjoy the view!
Kseniya MakarovaDecember 13, 2015

Great views, tacky setting
Christina BradwayApril 19, 2014
Staff seemed rude at first, but it must be tourist burnout. We started chatting them up, and they got personable.

Staff is useless in assisting in which line to wait. Stood for 1/2 hour in down elevator line as we were never told where lounge line was. Need direction from non existent staff. Hour ill never get bk

While the Observatory on the 97th floor is a popular spot, you'll have an even more memorable experience lounging, cocktail in hand, overlooking the same skyline. Read more

Best cheese cake ever!!!
Jack KuangJuly 28, 2019
Better Place@Chi City！
Mike SilhyAugust 14, 2015
Better option that the lookout deck
Chad FosterSeptember 18, 2014
Spectacular view
Emily S.December 27, 2016
Views are incredible, but don't go on a crowded day. Service is poor - they are likely understaffed.
Chris DeanerJanuary 15, 2012
Skip paying for the observatory and come here for free.
Joey NowakMay 6, 2018
Total tourist trap. No dress code, no exclusivity, no view, no service, expensive as hell. Not the experience you’re looking for.
Harry PMarch 10, 2013
I agree with the other comments of the rude service. They had plenty of window tables and the host refused to allow us to be at the window. We ignored the rude service and enjoyed the night.
ATRJanuary 4, 2013
Great for a couples night out
Selim PamukFebruary 22, 2014
Magnificient view of Chicago.
T.S.back Or NotJune 3, 2019

Fancy cocktails at the top of the John Hancock
Diedra FahrnerJuly 18, 2013
Host John is AWESOME!! Cocktail waitresses are the worst I have ever encountered. They have a weak wine "list".
Peter KruseSeptember 3, 2013
Great martinis.
Allison LuckAugust 29, 2011
Higher than the observatory, & much nicer atmosphere
Will DassoApril 25, 2017
TOO. LOUD. I expected expensive, but not ear-splitting loudness.
David HowlandAugust 10, 2014
Expensive but can't beat the view. Service was so-so but that's not why you go.
